"What form was this document in ?" "It was typed, on two sheets of legal paper" "Two sheets. That's too bulky to swallow". "And dry, Watson, fearfully dry, especially legal papers" Yes, as any law student will tell you, legal papers are bulky, fearfully dry, and VERY hard to swallow.
We've exposed their worst crimes. It doesn't do any good in a country where the world's biggest criminals hold the keys to the courts and prisons and control who gets any access to all major news media. As much as I love Holmes, this is a job for Zatoichi.
I love both Nigel Bruce and Basil Rathbone. The 30 minute episodes with Ronald Howard as Holmes and H. Marion Crawford as Watson are very, very good too. Rarely have I seen a series spin off so good from the such a special duo like Mr. Bruce and Mr. Rathbone. Simply a very, very great pleasure to watch them both. Thank you to all who post these awesome episodes.
I remember an interview with Basil Rathbone back in the 1960s when he fondly recalled his friendship with "Vinnie Price, that drunken sot." Delightful man!
No one bothered to mention how smart and brave this beautiful women was for not telling what she knew, cause you could tell she remembered where she got the match's but said nothing.💞
@@ellenexmadden no she didn't know she had the microchip...she did know when he asked her if he said or gave anything to her,while he was lightning her cigarette, and said permit me, she then remembered that the guy had said that,and that he dropped the matches in her purse.
Classic movie. To me Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce will always be the definitive Holmes and Watson. All others pale in comparison. Mind blowing to realize that the war was still going on when this movie was made.
Same here for the two of them. That's what people need to realize 💯 in these films 🎥 with a war raging Bruce was given the role of comedian to lighten the storyline.
@@SuperPatrick777 : Tanks! It's my native Brooklynese, a dead American dialect that was once spoken in Hollywood movies, especially in WW2 flicks by the little schmuck in the ball cap somewhere in back of the lead (invariably an upper-crust WASP college boy learning about diversity 1940s style). - -
Watson---"I wonder what happened to the mice?"; Holmes---"An intriguing line of thought, but not essential to the case". LOL! I love Holmes' casual dismissive responses.
To those who say its propaganda films of WW2, shoukd we have shown The Germans in a positive light? We were fighting them in North Africa, when this film was made!
It’s a trigger for smokers to light up. I’m a former smoker. I still get the itch when they light up, but the thought of the smell and the taste is revolting. I think they might have been sponsored to smoke. That industry is insidious.
The dubbed German version released in 1959 removed all Nazi references from the dialogue. The story of this edited version is about gangsters trying to get hold of a secret medicine formula that could be dangerous if in the wrong hands.
for those of you who enjoy these Doyle stories, you might enjoy a parody performed by THE FIRESIGN THREATRE entitled "The Adventures of Hemlock Stones and The Giant Rat of Sumatra"
Nigel Bruce was brilliant in these films to me Sherlock Holmes will always be best protrayed by Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. My second favorite films are the ones done by Robert Downey jr. and Jude Law as Holmes and Watson.
Somebody discovered that Sherlock Holmes's bald spot was all too readily seen on camera and supplied Holmes with a neat little coverup toupee, nicely appreciated in the "Antique Scene" towards the end of the film.
Thankfully, they got rid of that awful hairstyle on Sherlock Holmes in the later SH films. For a second there, Holmes looked like David Letterman or Art Garfunkel with that bad combover.
Did ya' even notice the old movies, when you see people traveling in a convertible their hat's don't fly off, their hair doesn't move. Fake background.
You don't tell anyone about the decoy. That's counter intelligence 101. You don't even acknowledge their existence. The whole point of a decoy is to label themselves as the target. Your operatives don't even know there IS a decoy. Again CO 101. Still love these old movies though.
Try "filming" in the Midwest or the Southwest U.S.A. They older gentleman there, really want to see & experience America. They'll have alot of stories to take home back to UK. lol... New York is fine, I suppose. It's alright. Just saying...😆🤭.
Not to take off the subject but I just realized John Williams basically ripped off the RKO theme when he made the Superman theme. Also I watched these movies with my Dad. He always got so excited for me to see who did it.
It was filmed at the old Glendale (CA.) airport, on Grandview. That location later became the location of MAPO (for Mary Poppins), part of Disney’s design building division. It’s adjacent to WDI (Walt Disney Imagineering). Addit: the airport scene was filmed at the old Glendale Air Terminal. Everything else was filmed at Universal, in Studio City, according to the IMDB page for this film. The rest I know from being a Disney brat (second generation Disney employee).

I can watch these videos over and over
Rathbone and Bruce will always be Holmes and Watson for me. Brilliant! Thanks for posting.
Mark Adams: Have you had the opportunity to read the Holmes' stories by Arthur Conan Doyle?
yep me too
This Sherlock is rather irritating.
And legions of others! Myself included!
Who could not adore these films and nigel bruce is my absolute favourite
LOVE SHERLOCK OLD MOVIES
These two are the real deal .I love these movies❤
I like the way Rathbone says ‘thank you’
“Especially legal papers”, …Basil you crack me up.
What a swashbuckling finale! Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce have been immortalized with/for their legendary roles!
“We had a carrier pigeon in the last war. We discovered it was going round and round in circles - poor thing was cross-eyed” Nigel Bruce’s Watson had the best lines ever 😂
😆
Tragic thing...
How does one cross-eye a wall-eyed pigeon?
@@jamesbugbee6812 - 'Cross'? - they were livid . . .
@@loddude5706 good one Gerald 😅
These B&W Sherlock Holmes films are timeless diamonds.
💎💎💎!!!
This theatre was just spectacular for everyone involved. What grace, what timing, what emotions.
No over weight Fast Food junkies either.
I just love these old movies. Sherlock Holmes and Ellery Queen are the best. Thx for putting these out so I can watch them again.
Love these old movies. Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce were the best.
Absolutely, indubitably the BEST!!!
No not the best. Bruce failed his part, Rathbone was OK. Jeremey Brett and ? did it the best. no debate
Basil Rathbone was the real Sherlock Holmes ! Well he was as far as I'm concerned.
Yeah but he didn't hang out in opium dens.
I agree.
yes!
Damn skippy
No shit .........Sherrrr'
Basil is, and always will be, Holmes.
"What form was this document in ?"
"It was typed, on two sheets of legal paper"
"Two sheets. That's too bulky to swallow".
"And dry, Watson, fearfully dry, especially legal papers"
Yes, as any law student will tell you, legal papers are bulky, fearfully dry, and VERY hard to swallow.
Lol!
No seat belts. Smoking on plane right after takeoff. Those were the good old days!
Its called freedom
They were truly good actors 😊
Impeccable!
BOY!
If any film ever needed to actually happen, it would be Sherlock going to Washington and exposing the crimes!

What would Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson have made of current POTUS Joe Biden and Mr. Biden’s own longtime arch-nemesis, former POTUS Donald Trump?
So cool to see so many of the same actors in these films. It’s fun to recognize them after all their different looks in the films.
Thrilling through and through! My favorite detective of all time; followed by Columbo... one more thing, lol.
I find these films very clean I love them.
Elegant and fascinating!!
Thanks for posting. I have listened to many of the Sherlock Holmes radio shows starring Rathbone and Bruce. They were a great team.
The “pretty girl” is actress Anne Archer’s mother. She only passed away in 2015 at age 97.
I quoted “pretty girl” because I was quoting Dr Watson in this movie at 37:12.
She's Marjorie Lord who starred on a Danny Thomas tv show
And Pete (John Archer) was Anne’s father.
Didn't know that. Interesting stuff. 👍👍
I love both Nigel Bruce and Basil Rathbone. The 30 minute episodes with Ronald Howard as Holmes and H. Marion Crawford as Watson are very, very good too.

Only one Holmes and Watson, Rathbone and Bruce, the rest were pathetic imitations.
I TOTALLY agree with you.....

"He said...permit me" brilliant. Thanks for the upload.

Actually she did not know she had the microdocuments, nor did the bad guys. That is this stories spicey twist.

@@adamnoman4658 For sure. Consider that 79 years ago was 1941. That's right before World War 2. People thought things were going pretty well.

And me in 2022 thinking Sherlock is timeless....ageless even 😂😂
An unusual amount of smoking and the striking of matches with "the" match book in question in this episode.
The best sherlock and watson by far
"Astounding Holmes! astounding old boy!"
💕 Love Sherlock Holmes 👍
Nice to see the shot of the old Penn station! (5.03)
A very well traveled matchbook!
♥️🇬🇧😀 ' what an interesting collection of pewter ". I need to say that more often
To quote Watson "Democracy the only hope for the future of the world eh Holmes" "yes Watson the very words of Winston Churchill".
but the globalist mafia managed to control the USA and the UK, and they became the greatest threat against freedom around the world
My all time Holmes and Watson. October, 2022.
I can't believe a plane that small could fly from England to NY.
Great old movies make you think
Clarence Muse stole the scene! "And the way I'm lookin' myself"! LOL
classics offer opportunities to understand so many aspects of modern films
Ageless, Invincible, & Unchanging.
Sir AC Doyle didn't foresee current day Hollywood.
That matchbook sure gets around. Love it thou.
Though .
Basil Rathbone stayed 100% to the books.
Surprisingly he was reliefed after he finished the final film of the series.
No Sherlock holmes story was set in the 1940's. It was just propaganda.
@@Makeyourselfbig Only this one. Conan Doyle wrote them beginning 1887.
Watson---"I wonder what happened to the mice?"; Holmes---"An intriguing line of thought, but not essential to the case".
LOL! I love Holmes' casual dismissive responses.
Holmes’ responses are often very dry. So subtle-a delight!
🕵️♂️🕵️♂️
To those who say its propaganda films of WW2, shoukd we have shown The Germans in a positive light? We were fighting them in North Africa, when this film was made!
Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce are the one and onlys.
Brilliant Sherlock❣️🧐Thank you for uploading ❤️💖🥰
Outstanding!
Never fails to amaze me how much smoking is in each film!? Crazy
Makes me want to cough!! Really
It’s a trigger for smokers to light up. I’m a former smoker. I still get the itch when they light up, but the thought of the smell and the taste is revolting.
I think they might have been sponsored to smoke. That industry is insidious.
Yawn .
great movies i have seen them all .love it
Amazing how All these Puffing Billies don’t have a single light between them. Never seen a book of matches with so many matches in it.
what happened to the mice?...an intriguing line of thought but not essential to the case...
Great movie no digishit thanks for sharing this great movie 🎬🇫🇮
Enjoyed the movie. Thank you.
Great Classical Movie--Thanks for that---
Yes he was magnificent
The Greatest !!!
Me encantó esta película además en un momento histórico muy sensible. Tiene muchos de los tics del género. Me encantan estas películas.
thank you, ! 👍👍👍👍👍 👌
Thank you
The London airport was actually the Burbank, CA airport.
He was the best
Such a shame about the adverts, they absolutely destroy the running of the films,
Thrilling!
The dubbed German version released in 1959 removed all Nazi references from the dialogue. The story of this edited version is about gangsters trying to get hold of a secret medicine formula that could be dangerous if in the wrong hands.
I love these old Sherlock movies, ham acting, wobbly scenery backed film and oh so terrible predictable storylines, but we all love them to bits.
I always found these films to be impeccable!! Too bad current movies are so dreadful.
Fantastic 😍
CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC !!!!!!!
We’re NOT a dEmOcRaCy !!!!!!!
great!
Basil's hairdo is really something
funniest comment ever
Bad hat too!
That's Nazi fighting hair!
I think he’s incredibly attractive-no kidding! 😎
Excellent episode 😊
Those were two different flying boats. One of those was a 314, but the other was smaller. Count the windows. Sorry my OCD is kicking in hard.
Good movie. Enjoyed
In 1945 they took 10 seconds to look at your passport and stamp it That was considered “rigmarole“ lol.
"I can't! I can't I tell you. Get me out of here. He gave me nothing".
for those of you who enjoy these Doyle stories, you might enjoy a parody performed by THE FIRESIGN THREATRE entitled "The Adventures of Hemlock Stones and The Giant Rat of Sumatra"

I like RDJ & Jude Law, but I also like Johnny Lee Miller & Lucy Liu.
Nigel Bruce comes off as too bumbling for Dr. Watson.
If only Sherlock knew what the British Raj and the American presidents were up to..😂😂😂

In this film Watson was portrayed as a confounded idiot, which in the novels, he wasn`t
Nigel Bruce portrays Watson as a confounded idiot in all the Rathbone / Bruce ' Sherlock Holmes ' movies - unfortunately.
Exactly 💯
Love from guwahati
Wow Sherlock Holmes in Washington DC wow
There should be a 2022 version of this .
TY
"And together with a mouse
we will prove this is his house

What an apt quote for this time at 1.10
Did ya' even notice the old movies, when you see people traveling in a convertible their hat's don't fly off, their hair doesn't move. Fake background.
If you love early black and white movies try " British Intelligence " with Boris Karloff. Special effects are a little crude but a good watch.
You don't tell anyone about the decoy. That's counter intelligence 101. You don't even acknowledge their existence. The whole point of a decoy is to label themselves as the target. Your operatives don't even know there IS a decoy. Again CO 101. Still love these old movies though.
From 32:00 to 35:00 I appreciated the black man spoke with intelligence.

Batman was a ripoff of The Shadow, a radio series.
